Eastern Board
Against Milk
Withholding
Current milk withholding
among daiiymcn in the north
east was recently reviewed by
the hoard of directors of East
ern Milk Pi oducers Cooperative
Assn , Inc J. Paul Walizer, of
Bellefonte Pennsylvania presi
dent of Eastern, reported that
the '7 members of the board
were polled to recheck the co
op’s membership to determine
an uo-to-rlate position on milk
withholdinc.
Walizer said, “the majori
ty of the board indicated
that the local delegates did
not favor withholding. Sever
al' of the districts took the
position established by their
delegates that they would fa
vor withholding if the Dairy
men’s League and the mem
bership of the Northeast Co
operative Federation would
also support such action.
Some delegates indicated that
they would support a milk
withholding action if they
were assured $l.OO per hun
dredweight improvement in
Class I prices.”
Eastern urged $lOO per hun
dredweight increase at the fed
eral milk hearing held last fall
in Washington, D C, Walizei
said

Walizcr said. “Eastern Milk
Producers is a democratically
run organization and *ts posi
tion on policy affecting the en
tire cooperative must reflect
the attitudes of the majority of
the overall membership. Even
though members in some areas
are sympathetic to the with
holding action, the great ma
jority, as shown by oui poll,
are opposed."
Within the last five weeks at
a delegate meeting of Eastern,
the delegates failed to support
a resolution favoring milk with
holding. The individual mem
ber, of course, has the choice
of making his own decision as
to whethei or not he desires to
withhold his own milk, V/ahzer
explained Eastern will not
place any restrictions on him,
nor will it be responsible for
any losses of milk in the event
the members’ milk does not
reach the marketplace due to
withholdine or action associat
ed with withholding, Walizer
stated, addmg that any further
detail as to the individual dis
trict activities is available
through the district director
responsible for each district
